Is Lee a false protagonist?

Okay,I think that Lee may be a false protagonist considering he was bitten,and I am pretty sure he will die.A false protagonist for those who don't know is a character who is ment to look like the main character,but is really just there to progress the story.It kind of makes sense,what do you think?

He's been there from episode 1 to 4. He /is/ the story, he's been there for over the majority of it. Just because he's a bit it doesn't make him a false protagonist it just means he's probably most certainly doomed.
